panTerrible.
From ugly / stupid character designs and silly names to a barely there plot, this book seems to rely entirely on the novelty of superheroes as dinosaurs. Really, that‘s it. Lazy world building leads to nonsensical situations leads to me not caring about anything that happens here. Do not bother with this one. Absolute pass.
so-soHere we go again...Batman and his allies against a force that's convinced violence is the answer. More death, more manipulation. Though this combatant as the lead of a new antagonistic team seems nostalgically traditional compared to Injustice Superman. We'll see how things unfold!
All thanks go to Panda Redd (and my library's hoopla subscription) for coming in clutch with a superbly timed video to let my cluelessness know that Injustice: Gods Among Us isn't just a prequel to a video game, it's just the FIRST set of graphic novels in this series. Makes so much more sense. Not even Storygraph's series linkages saved me from ignorance this time. 🤦🏼♂️
pickWell that was DARK. It was also an incredibly compelling read. Naturally, seeing how Superman and Wonder Woman are characterized is unsettling, and the heartbreaking losses just confirm this as a nightmarish 'what if', but what surprised me was the hope, the funny parts, and how much time Harley Quinn got on the page. Those surprises are why I still want to continue in the series. Art preference per issue varied, will see what comes next. 🤷🏼♂️
Nightwing: when levity and sass are sorely needed for the narrative.
*Snrk* Valid point. 🤭💚
pickThis was a quick read for me. I enjoyed it. My brother got me into graphic novels. I loved the characters and the plot of the book. The art work was amazing. I rated this book a 5 out of 5 stars.
pickI blew through this recently concluded DC alternate universe story where a bio/tech virus infects Earth. Lots of world and universe hopping, ridiculous power combinations, and a hell of a lot of fun! I'm not super familiar with the New Gods, but there was enough variety that the occasional obscure character didn't make the story any less accessible. #scarathlon
